How to check a used Pixel
Find the Pixel IMEI
Go to Settings > About phone, or dial *#06#. Pixels with eSIM show more than one IMEI. Check each one, and compare the numbers with the box if the seller has it.
What this check covers
This lookup searches owner-submitted reports that our reviewers have approved. It does not check Google, carriers or the GSMA blocklist, so treat a clean result as one part of your inspection.
Factory Reset Protection
A Pixel that was reset without removing the Google account will ask for the previous owner's account during setup. Ask the seller to remove their account in Settings > Passwords and accounts, then reset the phone while you watch.

Common questions
Can you track my stolen device?
No. A registry report does not provide live location or remote device control.
Does no report mean it is safe to buy?
No. A loss may not have been reported here. Ask for purchase evidence, inspect the device and confirm that you can complete setup.
Are activation locks and carrier blocklists included?
No. Manufacturer, activation, network blocklist, finance and MDM providers are not connected.
How does reporting work?
Submit the identifier, incident information, contact details and ownership evidence. A reviewer must approve the report before a warning or contact details appear in searches.
